  "account": "Gavin Doty led Syracuse to a lopsided 102-49 victory over Central Connecticut State on Thursday night. Doty contributed a season-high 18 points, while teammate Mark Morano added 16 points. Central Connecticut State, on the other hand, managed a single win and two losses this season.\n\nThe Orange's offensive firepower was evident as they combined for seven of the nine 3-pointers made during the game. Luke Wilson and Kiyan Anthony each scored 14 points for Syracuse, who finished the game at 38-of-59 from the field (64% accuracy). Sadiq White Jr. contributed 10 rebounds and 8 points, while four other Orange players scored eight points each.\n\nCentral Connecticut State's Raphel Laurent chipped in 17 points in the loss. The Orange took an early 12-0 lead in the first half, building a 47-23 halftime cushion. With Raphel Laurent scoring the first basket of the second half, Syracuse then scored 11 straight points, including a Morano 3-pointer, to solidify their dominance.\n\nThis matchup between Syracuse and Central Connecticut State is the teams' first meeting, with Syracuse emerging victorious in their previous encounter during the 2012-13 season. Syracuse now looks ahead to face Indiana in the upcoming Bad Boy Mowers Series.",
